A new beginning

Pentecost is always a glorious time to begin life anew, and this Pentecost Sunday is extremely special in that it is also the 3rd anniversary of my return to Catholicism!

In honor of this great occasion, I have decided to launch this new blog! I’ve been blogging for a while, via an online journal. It has been great, but lately it has turned into an odd combination of public blog and private journal. So basically, I’ve decided to separate the two! This will be the “public blog” space.

I had hoped to make this launch a much grander affair, but alas, life has been crazy, and I was sick yesterday. If you wish to know what sorts of things you might see here in the future, take a look at the “About This Blog” page!

Also, I am always open to suggestions about what I should write about, so don’t hesitate if you’d like to recommend something!

Thank you for coming, please stay tuned, and in the mean time, have a glorious and blessed Pentecost!

I’m glad that you managed to have such a blessed Pentecost, despite not being able to go to the Vigil. I, also, had a spiritually quiet Pentecost, and appreciate being reminded through your post that this can be a good thing! The Holy Spirit doesn’t always come with wind and fire — I am reminded of the quiet breath that Elijah heard — but sometimes He inclines us toward silence and contemplation. I think that I need that inducement to meditate upon God just as much as I need the nourishment of an emotional connection with Him; it’s good for us all to be reminded of the variety of ways — to fulfill the variety of our needs — in which God reaches out to draw us closer to Himself.
